Cielo review
A clearly labeled $199/mo semaglutide or $299/mo tirzepatide month-to-month, dropping to $89/$129 only with a 6-month prepay commitment — through a named clinical network (MD Integrations) but no named pharmacy and no published cancellation policy. It's a single-purpose, compounded-only site with no TRT, hair-loss, or mental-health add-ons crowding the page, and its Terms of Service route disputes to the laws of the State of Florida rather than staying silent on jurisdiction.

How we scored Cielo
Each factor is scored from Cielo's real pricing, disclosures and oversight, then combined into the 30/100 Metabolic-Fit Score by the same weighted six-factor framework we apply to every provider — never nudged by whether a provider pays us.
No postpartum or breastfeeding framing — a generic weight program.
Thin on the hormonal picture that drives many mothers' weight.
Limited public detail on who oversees care and how.
Cost is unpredictable or sits at the premium end.
Support is thin once the prescription ships.
Exit terms are the weak point: lock-in, notice periods, or a cancellation you have to chase.
How we verified this review

Independently verified 2026-08-05 via direct fetch of the homepage (fully server-rendered) and Terms of Service. The homepage repeats 'From $89/Month* Reg $199/Month' for semaglutide and 'From $129/Month* Reg $299/Month' for tirzepatide, with the asterisk resolving to '*With a 6-month plan. All doses.' — so $199/$299 is recorded as the standard month-to-month price and $89/$129 as the 6-month-prepay rate, per rule 6a (single headline number, promo captured separately). Terms of Service names MD Integrations as the contracted clinical network. No named pharmacy, no state list, and no cancellation/refund policy found anywhere on the public site. No FDA warning letter found for Cielo / joincielo.health in a direct search.
What to expect when you sign up
We walked Cielo's public signup funnel (August 2026) — a first-hand look at the flow. We don't create accounts, enter medical data, or complete checkout, so this is what any visitor sees, not a patient outcome.
- 1Pricing cards on the homepage show both the flexible monthly rate and the discounted 6-month-commitment rate, each clearly labeled
- 2Complete a medical assessment; the site describes 'physician-led care' and 'licensed physician review'
- 3Its Terms of Service names the clinical network behind the visits: 'JoinCielo.Health is contracted with MD Integrations'
- 4No named compounding pharmacy anywhere — copy only says 'Regulated FDA pharmacy partners'
What we noticed
- One of the more transparent promo/regular splits I've checked — the site itself prints "Reg $199/Month" right next to "From $89/Month*" with the asterisk explained on the same screen, instead of burying the real ongoing price
- But the $89/$129 rate only applies if you commit to 6 months upfront; someone who wants to stay month-to-month pays $199/$299
- No cancellation or refund policy could be found anywhere on the public site
- Nothing addresses pregnancy, breastfeeding, or PCOS
Pricing

| Medication | Monthly | Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Compounded semaglutide | $89 → $199 | Flexible monthly planSite's own pricing cards label $199/mo as "Reg" (regular) and $89/mo as "From... *With a 6-month plan." The $89 rate requires prepaying/committing to 6 months; month-to-month is $199. |

What we like
- Unusually clear about the split between its flexible and 6-month-commitment pricing — both numbers are printed side by side, not hidden
- Names its clinical network (MD Integrations) directly in its Terms of Service
- Compounded-only, single-purpose site — no unrelated add-on verticals to wade through
- Both molecules available on one plan
The caveats
- The advertised $89/$129 rate requires a 6-month upfront commitment; month-to-month runs $199/$299
- No named compounding pharmacy anywhere on the site
- No published state list
- No cancellation or refund policy found anywhere on the public site
Cielo for mothers: our verdict
A clearly labeled $199/mo semaglutide or $299/mo tirzepatide month-to-month, dropping to $89/$129 only with a 6-month prepay commitment — through a named clinical network (MD Integrations) but no named pharmacy and no published cancellation policy. It's a single-purpose, compounded-only site with no TRT, hair-loss, or mental-health add-ons crowding the page, and its Terms of Service route disputes to the laws of the State of Florida rather than staying silent on jurisdiction. The advertised entry is $89, but the standing rate settles near $299/month — so read the headline as a starting offer, not the monthly cost.
We weigh Cielo the way mothers actually have to: not just the monthly cost, but postpartum and breastfeeding timing and PCOS and insulin resistance — the parts a generic weight-loss review skips.
What Cielo actually costs
- Compounded semaglutide — Flexible monthly plan: $89 to start, then $199/mo
- Compounded tirzepatide — Flexible monthly plan: $129 to start, then $299/mo
For context, the typical ongoing price across our roster is around $168/month, so Cielo sits at the premium end.
The medications Cielo prescribes
Cielo prescribes semaglutide and tirzepatide — the two molecules with the strongest published weight-loss outcomes, and having both on one account matters when insulin resistance (common with PCOS and after gestational diabetes) makes tirzepatide the better-suited option. These are compounded formulations from a licensed pharmacy — the reason the price stays down — but compounded GLP-1s aren't FDA-approved finished products the way Wegovy and Zepbound are.
Where Cielo fits — and where it doesn't — for mothers
A good fit if…
- you may need to move between semaglutide and tirzepatide as your body and hormones change.
Look elsewhere if…
- you specifically want an FDA-approved brand pen with its own pregnancy and lactation labeling.
- you want frictionless cancellation — read the cancellation and refund terms in the caveats above before you pay.
- you'd rather a prescriber talk through timing around postpartum and breastfeeding timing — that's what our #1 pick, CoreAge Rx, is built for.
Trust, safety, and oversight
Our confidence in Cielo's public facts is high — pricing, pharmacies, and clinical network were verifiable at last review. As with any compounded GLP-1, the most useful thing mothers can do is confirm which licensed pharmacy fills the prescription and what's in the formulation — we explain how we weigh oversight in our scoring methodology.
A standing caveat for mothers: GLP-1 medications aren't established as safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding, and every label advises against use. Nothing here changes that — plan the timing with your own clinician.
The bottom line
Cielo is a reasonable option — weigh it on postpartum and breastfeeding timing and PCOS and insulin resistance against the alternatives below. For most mothers, CoreAge Rx remains the stronger all-round fit — see why it tops our ranking.
The bottom line for mothers
Best for: Mothers comfortable prepaying 6 months for the real discount, who've already confirmed their state and read the fine print on renewal.
Alternatives to Cielo
Providers we have a referral relationship with, ordered by their Metabolic-Fit Score — highest first. This module leaves out the provider whose page you are reading, so on CoreAge Rx's own review our #1 pick is the one name you will not find here. These are not the whole roster: see the full ranking for every provider we cover, paid or not.
- Visit CoreAge Rx92
Metabolic-Fit / 100
CoreAge RxOur #1 pickOne flat price, both molecules on a single chart, and a prescriber who reads your history before writing — the most predictable place for a mother to start and, just as important, to pause.
- Visit Gala Health84
Metabolic-Fit / 100
A flat $179 for either molecule with a genuinely gentle microdosing tier — a reasonable, all-doses-included option if you can live with a yearly plan and a pharmacy it doesn't name.
- Visit Enhance MD81
Metabolic-Fit / 100
One of the more oversight-forward compounded programs here — lab work and a live provider visit bundled into every plan, with a gentle microdosing tier — the catch is that the low '$212' headline you'll see quoted is the 12-month prepay rate, not the $249 you'd pay month to month.

Head-to-head & alternatives
Cielo, answered
- Is Cielo's $89/mo price the real ongoing cost?
- No — Cielo's own pricing cards label $89/mo (semaglutide) and $129/mo (tirzepatide) as requiring a 6-month commitment, with the flexible month-to-month rate at $199/mo and $299/mo respectively. Read the asterisk before you budget.
- Who actually treats you through Cielo?
- Cielo's own Terms of Service state it is 'contracted with MD Integrations' for clinical care. It doesn't name a specific pharmacy — only 'Regulated FDA pharmacy partners' generically.
- What's Cielo's cancellation policy?
- We couldn't find one published anywhere on the public site. Confirm directly with support before you commit to the 6-month rate, since that's the plan where an unclear cancellation policy matters most.
Pricing, states and verification reflect Cielo's public disclosures at last review; the Metabolic-Fit Score is our editorial judgment per the published methodology.
